Hippoclus
Hippoclus (Ancient Greek: Ἳπποκλος) is a tyrant of Lampsacus and the son of Aeantides. Hippias gave his daughter Archedice into marriage by consideration of Thucydides's influence at the Persian court.[1]
He is the same as the tyrant of Lampsacus in the list of those who were left at the passage of the Danube, specifically during the Scythian expedition of Darius I.[2]
